The Dems have cried and bellyached ever since Gore lost in 2000. I think the Republicans will be a better sport at losing than the Dems were.

Maybe not, but most die hard republicans that I know in real life are over the initial shock and are trying to have a positive outlook.

If the GOP has any hope of climbing out of the hole they've dug for themselves since 2006, Mike Steele needs to be in charge.

Now... in the REAL world, you have not heard - nor will you hear - a FRACTION of the crying and whining by the Republicans that you've heard from the Democrats for the past 8 years.
I disagree. I am in the real world. Frankly, who the president is doesn't affect my friends, acquaintances, or me too much. At my office, full of Fundamentalist Christian Republicans, people whine about the Democrats all the time.

That is FAR different than "whining about losing"

I complain (not whine) about Liberals myself - I would expect Liberals to complain about Conservatives as well - it's what we do - it's who we are...

But IMO, that does not equate to "whining about losing"

I suppose. But frankly, I have never heard any of my acquaintances say much of anything about the results of an election more than 2 weeks later. Some of the complaints on this board about the "hate" for Bush is in the same category as your quote. It's what liberals do - it's who we are.

Exactly! That is what we are trying to tell the Liberals on this forum

We've been listening to Bush bashing for 8 years

Now it our turn to bash BamBam...

Never got to give a reply since I work for a living and now have to support all of the sponges that Obama is helping out of their financial messes, banks and the idiot people who signed for loans that they knew they could not afford.

You did not tell any truth and rarely do. You moan and groan like you always do and nothing else. How do you like your liar in chief now that he has broken most of his campaign promises? Obama is just like I said, no different than any other polititician. He is a liar and would say and do anything for power and money and this supposed fame of being the savior. George Bush was and is a complete ******* and both the Republicans and Democrats are more than willing to sell the whole country down the drain as long as they get their power.
